Jiro Manio is already out of rehab and reunited with his family. This, despite him not finishing his entire treatment plan and cutting short his stay at the rehab facility.

According to the rehab center administrators, Jiro approached them and asked whether he can now be finally released from the rehabilitation center in Bataan.

Even if it wasn’t really time for him to go just yet, they conceded and gave in to his desires, seeing Jiro was in the right age to decide for himself anyway.

Jiro was said to have asked politely, with the promise of doing good in the outside world and helping out with the advocacies of the rehab facility. According to the former child star, he is itching to spend time with his family already.

After his family pleaded help from Jiro’s showbiz friends, Ai-ai de las Alas, who portrayed Jiro’s mother in the hit movie “Ang Tanging Ina”, boldly stepped forward and took on the challenge.

Ai-ai has since been helping shoulder all the expenses of putting Jiro into rehab, as well as paying for all his needs.

In January 2016, he was first released from rehab, but was then put back in just a couple of months later due to some “lapses” on his part. On October, he had a chance to have a “guided conversation” with Ai-ai, where Jiro was quoted to have said:

KAMI wishes to remind everyone that illegal dr*gs do no good to our minds and bodies at all. They may provide a temporary high and relief from whatever pain, sadness, and troubles we go through, but that’s not the way to go -- we should shun away from dr*gs as they do nothing but destroy lives and ruin relationships. Also, we at KAMI strongly believe in second chances and hope for a new and better life.
